Buttercups Isleworth are an outstanding nursery, conveniently located on the Twickenham Road. As with all Buttercups nurseries, they focus on "learning through play" where the child's natural curiosity drives their learning. They use a variety of teaching mechanisms, including Montessori and HighScope, and believe in the importance of nature and time outside.

Buttercups Isleworth is a large, free flow building, with plenty of space for active learners. They have a separate room for children under 2 and a quiet sleep room. There is lots to explore and discover at this nursery and a huge garden filled with toys and equipment. In the warmer months, the preschool visit Buttercups Syon Park for Forest School sessions.

Very thorough and detailed. My daughter has an excellent teacher and she has been integral in my daughters' development. I am clear about how my daughter has developed and how I can support her development at home.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Very good care.
The staff are kind and smile always, especially the manager who is organised and always focuses on improvements without the environment turning into a work zone in spite of dealing with a relatively large number of parents, kids and staff.
At a young age the experience, love and consistent
routine matters and this nursery has it all.

Review from S L (Mother of Child) published on 30 April 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The staff are friendly and attentive. I’ve never had any concerns with the child to carer ratio and the range of food they provide is fantastic. I find the way they approach learning is also excellent, children are encouraged to be independent and expressive and if there’s an opportunity to be outside
in the play area they do so. The playground could probably do with a little investment (resurfacing of astroturf) but it’s a good-sized, safe space to play. Communication has been an issue in the past but this is now a lot better with the regular weekly newsletter. It would be great to see them adopt additional ICT tools like EY logs which a lot of primary schools now use and is a fantastic way to see what your child is doing and how they are progressing.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our daughter started at Buttercups in January 2019. She had 2 weeks of settling in time which is very good. She settled in well quickly with the excellent help of the staff. The staff at Buttercups are very friendly and professional. The facilities and resources are really good and there are lots of
different activities that the children undertake. The standard of care is 2nd to none. Our daughter is very happy at Buttercups nursery and has learnt so much since she started and she looks forward to attending each time.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both my daughters attend this nursery and we have been extremely pleased with the service provided over the last three years. The children are well cared for and have a variety of activities to keep them engaged and aid with learning. The food is healthy and varied and I'm always amazed how orderly
meals times are compared to ours at home. We've never had any concerns over safety and both children enjoy the nursery and the teachers. The nursery has good outdoor space and the children are encouraged to go outside all year round weather permitting. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this nursery.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Nursery staff and management are very caring and pay attention to each individual child and their parents. I feel that my child is in safe hands and all the children seem to like it here. I like that it is spacious and children from different groups spend time together throughout the day, meal times
and activities. The outside area is spacious as well but could be slightly nicer in my opinion.

My children have been attending Isleworth Buttercups since October 2014 and have always been happy, well cared for, energised and well fed. Our son is being really well prepared for reception and all through very play-led methods. He is very happy at nursery and so are we. Thank you Buttercups.

My child has been going to Buttercups for over 3 years and I can't praise the nursery and staff enough! Caring, friendly and great attitude. As a parent, security and development (any type), are your main concerns and I didn't have to worry about these. My child loves going there and has made lovely
friendships!
I would highly recommend Buttercups Isleworth.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My son joined the nursery at a very young age, he was less than a year old and I was very nervous as both my partner and I work full time. He is now 18 months and I feel he has developed really well over this time in all aspects. I'm comfortable knowing he is in good care as the staff are very friendly
and look after him well. If I have another child I wouldn't hesitate placing him/her in this nursery.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.943)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.943) out of 10 for Buttercups at Isleworth is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 38 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 38 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Day Nursery is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.943 for Buttercups at Isleworth is calculated as follows: ( (433 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 456 Ratings = 4.943
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Buttercups at Isleworth is based on 38 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the number of registered child places in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Day Nursery registered for a maximum of 50 child places has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 60 number of registered child places is 12, which has been reached with 38 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Day Nursery does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
